[Bedok] Primary Schools

[phtthp]

Balloting occur once phase 2b or 2c demand soar above 14 seats each.

[limlim]

What kind of advice? another school? if there is no school where you can try 2B, just go for the ballot at rss lor… no harm.


Then, if necessary try again for 2c, or you could seriously consider what to do or what sch for 2c…

angerer:

looking at RSS, it seen confirmed going to balloting for phase 2B.

any advise ??
Thank you.

There's nothing you can do. If you had PVed, then you'll probably want to try your luck at 2B. SC over PR may help a little or perhaps not.

If you can't get in, and really die die must get into RSS, then try again at P2C.

Worst case scenario, you are very unlucky, you'll have to try your luck again at P2Csupp. Ultimately, let moe allocate the school for you.
But if you're lucky you may not need to face the stress at P2C or later....

Good luck. :xedfingers:

If my child couldn't register to Temasek pri school, can I still put her in waiting list? Hopefully before Pri 1 the school can call me up to tell me there is available vacancy or transfer at Pri 2?

Yes, do that as soon as you have failed to secure a place.

There were parents who had the good fortune of being offered a place even before P1 starts.

[jasc]

Thank you BigDevil for your reply! I feel encouraged!

I recall there was 1 year, where the vacancy "increased" during P2C.


Maybe someone pulled out… so… ya… maybe got chance.

Not surprising, especially true if parents heed the usual advice \"register in 2A2 first, monitor, and withdraw if chance is good\".

I can only register under 2C (above 1km) hopefully I’m lucky so that I don’t have to go through it again 3 years later.
